Slamming Smoothie Contest - Cherry Berry Heaven

Hey Folks! Our next contender in the Slamming Smoothie Contest is Chansi Coleman with a smoothie called Cherry Berry Heaven. Not only did she submit a fantastic recipe she included some heath nuggets about the ingredients. Check it out:

Cherry Berry Heaven:

1 c deep red cherries remove seed

1 c of blueberries

4 c of spinach

a sprinkle of flax seeds

Ice to chill and a drop of agave sweetener

Spinach and cherries are filled with potassium which aid in the lowering of blood pressure while giving the body energy. Blueberries have a low impact on blood sugar and are filled with the most antioxidants for our health. I use agave sweetener as a kick and because it is proven that it doesn't effect sugar levels. Enjoy....
